BBC is reporting of an incident in Madgeburg, Germany. A car drove into a Christmas Market, first reports of 60 to 80 injured.

I dislike getting links to NY Times. I don't subscribe and they won't let me read the links.

Celtic sea salt; quarter teaspoon dissolved in a couple of tablespoons of very hot water and sipped while hot will soothe that cough in seconds. A natural remedy 😉 Take care.

Thank you, D.L.!! Does it have to be Celtic Sea Salt?

The brand I recommended was used in a randomized trial (Buteyko breathing method, which was shown to be effective with asthmatics). I’ll see if I can locate the paper. I’ve been using this method for years and can vouch for it.

If you can handle it, try holding and melting a vitamin c 500 mg

under the tongue or tucked into the cheek. Also vitamin E same. The tissues take it up quickly. This is not an easy method but it does work for me. The other one that always has worked for years is herbal:

*Day 1, six tabs of Wellness Formula taken at the very first sign of a coming cold /flu feeling - try within the first hour; then followed by 6 more every 4 hours = 24

*Day 2, some combination of 4 every 4 hrs or 6 every 6 = 16

*Day 3, taper. I carry a day's worth with me in a pill holder.
